Chinesische Redewendungen leicht gemacht

As a Chinese learner, you probably know the dilemma: you've been learning Chinese for quite some time, you know many characters, but when you're among Chinese or want to read a bestseller that Chinese friends have recommended to you, you feel completely lost. "mama-hoo-hoo" horse-horse-tiger-tiger. What does that mean? And what does "ban pingzi cu" mean half a bottle of vinegar? You understand every single character, but not the context. A dictionary usually doesn't help. If you ask your teacher, you will be surprised to find that he explains such a short group of words in long sentences. We have made this booklet of Chinese phrases easy for you. It will help you to understand phrases and sentences whose individual characters you all know and which you cannot find together in any dictionary. The idioms in this book come in very handy.
